The neurohormone tyramine stimulates the secretion of an Insulin-Like Peptide from the intestine to modulate the systemic stress response in C. elegans

This study identifies INS-3 as a key insulin-like peptide modulated by tyramine that influences stress resistance and reproductive development in C. elegans.

Acute-stress impairs cytoprotective mechanisms through neural inhibition of the insulin pathway

The paper shows that acute stress impairs cytoprotective mechanisms by inhibiting the insulin pathway through neural release of tyramine in C. elegans.
